SAINT AME
CHAPELLE DU VIEUX SAINT AME
Description
Amé de Remiremont was born around 560 in Grenoble. He died in Remiremont in 627. With Saint-Romaric, he created the double monastery of Saint-Mont, thus enabling the most powerful female chapter in Europe to come into being.
He spent his last years in a cave before dying in 629 at Saint-Mont.
The crosses erected on this spot are a reminder that this was the site of the first church of Saint-Amé and that the cemetery received the bodies of deceased parishioners until 1724.
The chapel is closed, with only the exterior visible.
Accessible only on foot - You can also set off from the mobile police station at Saint-Etienne-lès-Remiremont.
